Question:

Hello, i used to be able to run JDownloader with no problems in Hardy Heron, but i've recently installed Intrepid and since then im unable to use it. There seems to be a problem with my java version, although everything else(java-related) works well. I get this message when trying to run JDownloader:

You useses a wrong Java version. Please use a original Sun Java. Start jDownloader anyway?
Your Java Version:
Runtime Name
icedtea6 1.3.1 (6b12-0ubuntu6) runtime environment
Runtime Version
1.6.0_0-b12

Problems with Nvidia drivers: video run slow

  • Kernel
  • Kubuntu
  • Nvidia

Question:

I just installed kubuntu Intrepid, and of course had to update Nvidia drivers because of the new kernel. I found, to my dismay, that the 177.80 and the 177.82 driver work HORRIBLY on this version. In fedora, I can easily play newer games at 1024x768 resolution with my Nvidia Geforce 6200 LE, while the same games with the same settings and the same video driver have trouble getting over 15 fps on Kubuntu Intrepid. Is there a way to get past this issue, or must I wait till Nvidia issues new drivers or the Ubuntu developers solve the problem??

Realtek ALC861 microfone in Ubuntu trouble

Question:

There seems to be at least four different unsolved threads on Realtek ALC861 integrated sound card / microfone trouble. The thing is, I can hear my voice from the mic through the headphones, but neither Sound recorder nor Ekiga catches the sound. Editing /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base as suggested (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=616845) doesn't help. Hardy.

Hi Everyone,

I hope this helps other users who may have similar problems.

I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) on a HP Slimline S3015uk and a HP Photosmart P1000 printer connected on USB, the printer installed first time and appeared ok as it printed a test page correctly but when printing from Firefox or Openoffice all I got was garbage characters.

Question:

I'm currently testing Hardy on my laptop which has Gutsy installed in a separate partition.

I was editing the Hardy fstab to copy the partition data from my Gutsy fstab and unfortunately included my /home partition - when I next booted Hardy it used the Gutsy /home partition which, amongst other things, fired up rhythmbox.

When I went back to Gutsy I got the message...

"Could not load the music database<
